    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Mar 17, 2024
     | 591 views

    Why are we afraid to preach Matthew 23? Why does the Revised Common Lectionary leave it completely out? Are we afraid to let our churches know that we church leaders are weak, and fail, and also need to repent? Let's find out in Matthew 23.

    Jesus warned about hypocrisy among religious leaders and accompanying woes. Have we ever heard this taught?

  • Twenty-Eighth Sunday In Ordinary Time; 28th Sunday B Rich Young Man

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Oct 9, 2021
     | 1,241 views

    By the apostles leaving all of that, we can see that Jesus relativized all of the central institutions of his society.

    The rich young ruler is not boasting; he is just speaking as a devout Jew. Not all Christians are called to literally give away their possessions, but all disciples are called to give up everything by way of detachment; that everything we have ultimately belongs to God. Spiritual poverty means to ...read more

    Exhaustion is something we all struggle with. Paul teaches us how to battle spiritual exhaustion in our lives in this message.

So, basically this message has come at just the right time. This week ...read more

    One of the greatest hindrances you will encounter in your Christian walk is that of the religious spirit.

  • Making Jesus Real

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Sep 27, 2023
     | 863 views

    The Love of God was put on display for all the world to see. Those who believed became the personal recipients of that love. As His family we want continue to make the love of Jesus obvious to others, through our words and our actions, we cannot divorce one from the other.

    We took this summer to discuss many different philosophical as well as biblical arguments that point to God’s existence. Yet amongst all the arguments, I believe one of the greatest testimonies for the existence of a personal God is His love (1 John 4:8). Love is at the core of the Christian faith ...read more
